A: All AHA Heartsaver® CPR and First Aid certification cards and BLS certification cards are good for 2 years.

Q: When will I receive my certification card?

A: Since Baby Be Safe is a training center for AHA, you will receive your certification card on the date of the class as long as full payment is received.

Q: I am expecting and am not sure when I should take your AHA Friends and Family course?

A: It is recommended that you take the course before you have the baby. However; if you end up having the baby before a scheduled class, then take the class as soon as possible because you want to know what to do in the event of an emergency.

Q: I am scheduling a private home class, who should I schedule to take this course?

A: You and your spouse should take the course and anyone that will be taking care of your child (e.g. nanny, grandparent, neighbor, relative and friend). Also it’s ok for your children to be at the class.

Q: I would like a private home course and I have an 11 month old child, should I schedule an infant only CPR course?
